actually youre wrong, same designer, used to work for one of Ford’s companies. Jaguar.

Ford 500, is pretty much nothing more than a Jaguar X-type/Volvo S60.

But I do see the resemblance to the A6. But then again, a lot of cars look a like these days.

Yea, it does look like the vw/audi and yes designers do move around and get jobs with other companies. Are you saying you like the new 500 or that it’s as ugly as a vw/audi?

I like the looks of the new 500 a little, but not as much as the vw/audi.

the new 500 is a bigger car then the VW/Audi though, but I do see the design cues. But the designer who did the 500, also did the Jaguar X Type

but then again  
Ford 500 = Jaguar X Type = Volvo S60
